The original design of mini skirt and strapless top, did not make any sense within the context of the game. It was a cheap fanservice, and looking ridiculous today. I am very grateful that Capcom has stopped listening to reactionary gamers and has taken the path of a design that makes sense.

DVAcme1890d ago

Agreed. I still laugh at all the people who shit on Ada's new design in REMake 2, when it was much more sensible wear for a zombie apocalypse, especially since Ada had prior knowledge of the Raccoon City outbreak before she arrived.

MadaoBlooms1890d ago

Didn't she get her red dress anyway? What was there to be mad at?

annoyedgamer1890d ago

Exactly. In my real zombie prep kit I have boots, knives, food and armor. Its a sensible kit for when a zombie outbreak does occur.

-Foxtrot1890d ago (Edited 1890d ago )

I didn't hate Ada's design in the RE2 Remake, hell I liked it, using old concept art of her from the original RE2

But sensible? She was still wearing high heels for Christ sake XD

I don't get Capcom saying they want realism then have things like that...I don't have an issue with it like I said but it's still odd.

naruga1890d ago

Jill in the remake is fuing ugly ...redesign her immediatly

MasterChief36241890d ago

Naruga? More like Na-rude-ga. Get out of here with that lame opinion.

xTonyMontana1890d ago

@MadaoBlooms exactly. Options are good! Jill's strapless top and skirt are now an iconic part of the character for me, I'm completely down for Capacom designing her as they see fit as long as I can play her in the same outfit as I remember.

FPS_D3TH1889d ago

Naruga adding another 5+ years to his virigin status

isarai1890d ago

How does it not make sense? Isnt she just in a situation that calls for casual civilian clothing? Im not arguing im genuinely asking cause i never played RE3. Like what is she doing in the intro before being dragged into the events in the game?

-Foxtrot1890d ago

I think it would have been good if she was wearing her original outfit at the start of the game, like how Leon wasn't wearing his police outfit until after the intro, then she goes back to her apartment and changes to something better suited.

GamerRN1890d ago

As long as they include original outfit as unlockable...

GameStallion1890d ago

They did it so they can sell you the original outfit as DLC.

annoyedgamer1890d ago

Agreed. Women should not be showing skin this day in age. These manbabies can go watch porn if they want to see skirts and dresses and long hair.

BadElf1890d ago

Or play some M rated games(made for adults) that have a sexual female character. You can have your games like The Outer Worlds still , with fugly character customization. Or the boring lesbian in TLOU2.
Choices. Thats key. If a game came out with a big breasted female that didnt look like a shrek, it would sell well

Casepb1890d ago

This coming from a guy who believes in zombies... dude get over yourself.

xTonyMontana1890d ago

Skirts, dresses and long hair.. when I think of porn only of those really comes to mind.. you must be into some pretty weird stuff... oh and that's a really bad bait lol

BlackTar1871889d ago

Skirts, dresses and long hair...

I think we watch much different porn most of my porn might only include long hair, not skirts or dresses... You're doing it wrong.

DeadManMMX1890d ago

They didn't even redesign her shes just wearing a coat over the dress.

FallenAngel19841890d ago

You really criticizing something like that? The entire series features characters in clothing that, taken as individual articles look contemporary and realistic enough, but the combined effect somehow looks distinctive

- Ada Wong wears an ankle length evening dress while fighting hordes of zombies in Resident Evil 4.

- Claire Redfield 2 comes in Raccoon City on a motorcycle, but is just wearing cutoff jean shorts, a vest, gloves, and some spandex onesie underneath. No motorcyclist would ever do that, unless they didn't mind some serious windburn.

Seems pretty ridiculous to complain about the impracticality of clothing when it’s always been a staple of not only this series but most properties in general

Shiken1890d ago

Well I mean, I ore ordered so she will be wearing a strapless top and mini skirt in my game. =P

1890d ago
LOLcheeseORZ1890d ago

Not every video game has to be realistic you know.

rainslacker1890d ago

mini skirt and strapless top was a staple of campy horror movies back in the day, and even nowadays. It wasn't about trying to exploit women, nor making any kind of political statement.

Capcom is listening to reactionary "gamers". Just not the one's that play these games.

Max_Eckhardt1889d ago

Let women wear what they want you misogynist pig!
I for one fully support hot young women wearing mini skirts, braless tops, and no underwear!

Still got some nice "ballistics"

SmielmaN1889d ago

I would have liked an ultra sexy Jill Valentine.... either way, I’m stoked for this game and can’t wait for my CE to arrive.

Just bought the everything unlock for RE:2 for $2 as part of the Big in Japan sale on PSN. Will jump back in before this comes out!

Each month I have a CE coming! Doom, RE:3, and Last Of Us 2! Wooooooooooo!!!!

william_cade1889d ago

I beyond hyped for Last of Us 2 and will definitely check out RE:3. I would love an RE:1 Directors Cut remake.

SmielmaN1888d ago

@Willy,
They have remade the original RE, I believe. My son and I got through it before RE 2 remake. Check it out on PSN. Might be on sale. Just read today Last of Us is getting its own show done by HBO!!!!!!! Wowowowowo

contra1571890d ago

Do everything they can to distort the original; I’ll stick with the original

kayoss1890d ago

They didnt distort the original. They updated to make it modernized. Who the hell wear stuff like that to fight zombies? The story is still intact, all the characters are still there. what did they distort?

BadElf1890d ago

When the Zombie outbreak happens, you tellin me there wont be anyone in a dress, skirt, bathing suit etc?

SamPao1889d ago

BadElf yeah and you are going to change that as quickly as you can

BlackTar1871889d ago

BadElf pretty sure Jill just got done fighting zombies in a mansion it would make no sense for her to go home and slip into a skirt ROFL.

stupidusername1889d ago

Is removing a mini skirt and a strapless top ‘doing everything they can to distort the original’?
I’m sorry, but you should get over yourself.

franwex1890d ago

I kinda want her to wear what she had originally. Maybe we can change her costume?

SlagWolf1890d ago

If you play on Pc I’m sure sone one will mod that in.

BadElf1890d ago

I know you get it from pre ordering, Im pretty sure

tigertron1889d ago

There will be an add on. It's free if you pre-order from certain places.

SmielmaN1889d ago

Ppl are saying we are getting that with our Preorders so 🤞🏻🤞 27995; Hoping they are right.

Eamon1890d ago

Claire's original design looked very odd - straight out of an 80s/90s anime OVA. And Leon starting his first day on the job in police uniform made no sense. So I get the design changes there.

But Jill's design change looks worse in my opinion. My issue is that her outfit is far too generic. Straight out of an edgy zombie flick. Luckily, her original outfit is included as pre-order DLC. Some say it's out of place in a zombie apocalypse but considering that Jill had no idea the city she's in was going to hell, it makes sense for her to be in a casual outfit.

Nerdmaster1890d ago

Jill and the rest of the remaining Stars team members were doing everything in their power to warn people about the T-virus outbreak. The mansion and underground lab exploded, but there were already cases of zombie attacks in the city (this is even why Bravo team was sent to investigate it in the first place).

She knew.

BlackTar1871889d ago

she did know and even if she didn't, for the sake of argument why would she survive the zombie mansion on go home and slip into a skirt anyways?

Eamon1889d ago

Probably because her STARS uniform was all ripped up and dirty, lol?

Perhaps I'm remembering wrong, but she knew about the virus but didn't know the city would go to hell.

BlackTar1871889d ago

I get what you're saying but it still makes little sense for her to go home and dress so unpractical to go out and warn people. I mean she could be so dumb she thought hey Zombie threat is over and she'll go warn people about something they have nothing to worry about, what could go wrong?

Nerdmaster1887d ago (Edited 1887d ago )

And let's not forget that in the opening scene, she is in her bedroom getting her weapon ready. I'm sure she could've found a better outfit in her closet. (Where was she planning on putting that gun?)

If the year ended today then yes it would be my personal GOTY. Absolutely!

In my opinion some of these games might be part of the GOTY nominees.

Blue Prince
Doom- dark ages
ER- Nightreign
Midnight Walk
MK World
MGS Snake eater
Ghost of Yotei
HK- Silksong
Hades 2

I am sure there are others that might surprise us down the road but these are the ones I can think of from top of my head that could challenge Clair Obscur- E33 for GOTY.

F their no game keycards

darthv721d 12h ago

...still better than a one time use code in a box.

Neonridr1d 11h ago

people here forget that Sony sells Collector's Editions of games (God of War, Horizon, etc) that give you a steelbook with no disc. Just a code on a piece of paper. But because some 3rd party devs are choosing this route it's all Nintendo's fault.

Si-Fly1d 10h ago

If the option was a physical cartridge or a game key card then that would be the best possible situation. However it’s looking increasingly like game key cards will totally phase out physical media and that is really disappointing. I have a huge physical Switch libary and was looking forward to doing the same for the Switch 2.

staticall1d 9h ago

@Neonridr
But it was Nintendo, who introduced this game key thingy. So it's 100% their fault.

Neonridr15h ago

@staticall - they gave devs the option I guess, yes. But I haven't seen a single first party Nintendo game opt for this route.

CrimsonWing691d 11h ago

Ironic coming from an ex-Ubisoft lead dev.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1d 11h ago

How so? Do you think devs have any say on how a game is distributed?

Neonridr1d 11h ago

yes.. they could pay full price to put their games on a cartridge, or pay less and provide a digital code and save money.

Which do you think devs would opt for?

CrimsonWing691d 11h ago

It wasn’t about distribution… 🤦‍♂️

The irony being him criticizing what creates of the loss of making gaming feel “special.” You know, annual releases with a paint-by-number blue print, monetization, and in general just Ubisoft practices for the last decade.

Sorry that one went over your head.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1d 9h ago

Then maybe you should do a better job of making your point instead of readers assuming what you’re trying to say.

Muigi1d 11h ago

Yet most games these days on Blu-ray's don’t even contain the full game or the game at all. But he wasn’t complaining when he was at Ubisoft tho.

Christopher1d 11h ago

Kind of normal to not want to get fired for public complaints about your company, though.

Duke191d 11h ago

Buying a physical box, just to open it for a glorified QR code is a shitty practice but I can absolutely see it becoming the norm sadly.

The enjoyment of owning something physically is going away, now its just a paid trial of services you never really "own".

Neonridr1d 11h ago

except this is still a physical cartridge that you have to put in your console. You just have to download the entire game. But instead of it just being a code in a box (which is a one time use), you could still sell this or lend it to your friend.

It's not great no, but it's nothing like what we had with some Switch games.

Duke191d 11h ago

Fair, its better than a one time use code but it I agree with the point in the article. It still takes away from the overall experience (especially from a nostalgia perspective).

Neonridr1d 8h ago

@Duke19 - I mean we have digital edition only consoles now from MS and Sony. That's ok?

Seems like this is just a physical vs digital conversation, you can't exactly single out Nintendo here as everyone seems to be doing it.

gold_drake1d 10h ago

thisnis definitely gonna bite nintendo in the arse in some way.

kids mostly use the consoles and not all parents know what to do with it.

also, what if u dont or cant use wifi ? lol

Won’t be surprised that they will blame Genki for missing the target sales. After all it’s Genki that decided to price the console and games

Christopher2d ago

Aren't they already sold out on preorders in most places?

MDTunkown2d ago

It’s still not hard to find them here in Europe. Amazon fr even until this weekend sold them for 20 euro cheaper than market price.

Profchaos2d ago

US and Japan are sold out Australia is in stock and UK has limited stock in some retailers left

Agent752d ago

The money that Nintendo lost on Wii U, they made up for on Switch, but still, the loss is still there. All guns blazing with Switch 2 pricing, suing Genki is a 'we need to make money' exercise. Goes without saying that Switch 2 will sell out at launch, but once it settles down, the masses won't pay it.

Profchaos1d 14h ago

Actually the 3DS kept Nintendo afloat during the Wii U era it was a huge hit with a healthy profit margin

Profchaos2d ago

Genki abused its position as a partner to drum up hype for their business so they deserve the lawsuit however it's not going to be blamed for missing any targets

Dhika2d ago

They should be renamed to "Suetendo" haha

xHeavYx2d ago

Please don't laugh at the end of your own jokes

Yui_Suzumiya2d ago

I was once addicted to soap but now I'm clean, haha

jznrpg2d ago

It’s almost identical to the first Switch. No surprise.

Profchaos2d ago

Pretty clear cut here they were under a partnership agreement here they violated that
